1 Preliminaries

Let K be a nonempty subset of an arbitrary Banach space E and E be its dual space. The symbols D(T), R(T) and F(T) stand for the domain, the range and the set of fixed points of T respectively (for a single-valued map T:XX, xX is called a fixed point of T iff T(x)=x). We denote by J the normalized duality mapping from E to 2 E defined by

J(x)= { f E : x , f = x 2 = f 2 } .

Let T be a self-mapping of K.

Definition 1 Then T is called Lipshitzian if there exists L>0 such that

TxTyLxy
(1.1)

for all x,yK. If L=1, then T is called non-expansive, and if 0L<1, T is called contraction.

Definition 2[2, 3]

  1. 1.

    The mapping T is said to be pseudocontractive if the inequality

    xy x y + t ( ( I T ) x ( I T ) y )
    (1.2)

holds for each x,yK and for all t>0. As a consequence of a result of Kato [4], it follows from the inequality (1.2) that T is pseudocontractive if and only if there exists j(xy)J(xy) such that

T x T y , j ( x y ) x y 2
(1.3)

for all x,yK.

  1. 2.

    T is said to be strongly pseudocontractive if there exists a t>1 such that

    xy ( 1 + r ) ( x y ) r t ( T x T y )
    (1.4)

for all x,yD(T) and r>0.

  1. 3.

    T is said to be local strongly pseudocontractive if, for each xD(T), there exists a t x >1 such that

    xy ( 1 + r ) ( x y ) r t x ( T x T y )
    (1.5)

for all yD(T) and r>0.

  1. 4.

    T is said to be strictly hemicontractive if F(T)φ and if there exists a t>1 such that

    xq ( 1 + r ) ( x q ) r t ( T x q )
    (1.6)

for all xD(T), qF(T) and r>0.

It is easy to verify that an iteration scheme { x n } n = 0 which is T-stable on K is almost T-stable on K. Osilike [5] proved that an iteration scheme which is almost T-stable on X may fail to be T-stable on X.

Clearly, each strongly pseudocontractive operator is local strongly pseudocontractive.

Chidume [6] established that the Mann iteration sequence converges strongly to the unique fixed point of T in case T is a Lipschitz strongly pseudo-contractive mapping from a bounded closed convex subset of L p (or l p ) into itself. Afterwards, several authors generalized this result of Chidume in various directions. Chidume [7] proved a similar result by removing the restriction lim n α n =0. Tan and Xu [8] extended that result of Chidume to the Ishikawa iteration scheme in a p-uniformly smooth Banach space. Chidume and Osilike [2] improved the result of Chidume [6] to strictly hemicontractive mappings defined on a real uniformly smooth Banach space.

Recently, some researchers have generalized the results to real smooth Banach spaces, real uniformly smooth Banach spaces, real Banach spaces; or to the Mann iteration method, the Ishikawa iteration method; or to strongly pseudocontractive operators, local strongly pseudocontractive operators, strictly hemicontractive operators [919].

The main purpose of this paper is to establish the convergence, almost common-stability and common-stability of the Ishikawa iteration scheme with error terms in the sense of Xu [1] for two Lipschitz strictly hemicontractive operators in arbitrary Banach spaces. Our results extend, improve and unify the corresponding results in [2, 3, 10, 11, 1518, 2025].

2 Main results

We need the following results.

Lemma 3[26]

Let { α n } n = 0 , { β n } n = 0 , { γ n } n = 0 and { ω n } n = 0 be nonnegative real sequences such that

α n + 1 (1 ω n ) α n + ω n β n + γ n ,n0,

with { ω n } n = 0 [0,1], n = 0 ω n =, n = 0 γ n <and lim n β n =0. Then lim n α n =0.

Lemma 4[27]

Let { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 be sequences of nonnegative real numbers and0θ<1, so that

a n + 1 θ a n + b n , for all n0.
  1. (i)

    If lim n b n =0, then lim n a n =0.

  2. (ii)

    If n = 0 b n <, then n = 0 a n <.

Lemma 5[4]

Letx,yX. Thenxx+ryfor everyr>0if and only if there isfJ(x)such thatRey,f0.

Lemma 6[2]

LetT:D(T)XXbe an operator withF(T). Then T is strictly hemicontractive if and only if there existst>1such that for allxD(T)andqF(T), there existsjJ(xq)satisfying

Re x T x , j ( x q ) ( 1 1 t ) x q 2 .

Lemma 7[24]

Let X be an arbitrary normed linear space andT:D(T)XXbe an operator.

  1. (i)

    If T is a local strongly pseudocontractive operator and F(T), then F(T) is a singleton and T is strictly hemicontractive.

  2. (ii)

    If T is strictly hemicontractive, then F(T) is a singleton.

In the sequel, let k= t 1 t (0,1), where t is the constant appearing in (1.6). Further L denotes the common Lipschitz constant of T and S, and I denotes the identity mapping on an arbitrary Banach space X.

Definition 8 Let K be a nonempty convex subset of X and T,S:KK be two operators. Assume that x o K and x n + 1 =f(T,S, x n ) defines an iteration scheme which produces a sequence { x n } n = 0 K. Suppose, furthermore, that { x n } n = 0 converges strongly to qF(T)F(S)φ. Let { y n } n = 0 be any bounded sequence in K and put ε n = y n + 1 f(T,S, y n ).

  1. (i)

    The iteration scheme { x n } n = 0 defined by x n + 1 =f(T,S, x n ) is said to be common-stable on K if lim n ε n =0 implies that lim n y n =q.

  2. (ii)

    The iteration scheme { x n } n = 0 defined by x n + 1 =f(T,S, x n ) is said to be almost common-stable on K if n = 0 ε n < implies that lim n y n =q.

We now establish our main results.

Theorem 9 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of an arbitrary Banach space X andT,S:KKbe two Lipschitz strictly hemicontractive operators. Suppose that { u n } n = 0 , { v n } n = 0 are arbitrary bounded sequences in K, and { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 , { c n } n = 0 , { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 and { c n } n = 0 are any sequences in[0,1]satisfying

  1. (i)

    a n + b n + c n =1= a n + b n + c n ,

  2. (ii)

    c n =o( b n ),

  3. (iii)

    lim n c n =0,

  4. (iv)

    n = 0 b n =,

  5. (v)

    L[ ( 1 + L ) 2 b n + c n +(1+L)( b n + c n )]+ c n b n k(ks), n0,

where s is a constant in(0,k). Suppose that { x n } n = 0 is the sequence generated from an arbitrary x 0 Kby

x n + 1 = a n x n + b n T z n + c n v n , z n = a n x n + b n S x n + c n u n , n 0 .
(2.1)

Let { y n } n = 0 be any sequence in K and define { ε n } n = 0 by

ε n = y n + 1 p n ,n0,

where

p n = a n y n + b n T w n + c n v n , w n = a n y n + b n S y n + c n u n , n 0 .
(2.2)

Then

  1. (a)

    the sequence { x n } n = 0 converges strongly to the common fixed point q of T and S. Also,

    x n + 1 q ( 1 s b n ) x n q + L ( 1 + L ) k 1 b n c n u n q + ( 1 + L ) k 1 c n v n q , n 0 ,

    (b)

    y n + 1 q ( 1 s b n ) y n q + L ( 1 + L ) k 1 b n c n u n q + ( 1 + L ) k 1 c n v n q + ε n , n 0 ,
  2. (c)

    n = 0 ε n < implies that lim n y n =q, so that { x n } n = 0 is almost common-stable on K,

  3. (d)

    lim n y n =q implies that lim n ε n =0.

Proof From (ii), we have c n = t n b n , where t n 0 as n. It follows from Lemma 7 that F(T)F(S) is a singleton; that is, F(T)F(S)={q} for some qK. Set

M=max { sup n 0 { u n q } , sup n 0 { v n q } } .

Since T is strictly hemicontractive, it follows form Lemma 6 that

Re x T x , j ( x q ) k x q 2 ,xK,

which implies that

Re ( I T k I ) x ( I T k I ) q , j ( x q ) 0,xK.

In view of Lemma 5, we have

xq x q + r [ ( I T k I ) x ( I T k I ) q ] ,xK,r>0.
(2.3)

Also,

( 1 b n ) x n = ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) x n + 1 + b n ( I T k I ) x n + 1 + b n ( T x n + 1 T z n ) c n ( v n x n ) ,
(2.4)

and

( 1 b n ) q= ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) q+ b n (ITkI)q.
(2.5)

From (2.4) and (2.5), we infer that for all n0,

( 1 b n ) x n q ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) ( x n + 1 q ) + b n ( I T k I ) ( x n + 1 q ) b n T x n + 1 T z n c n v n x n = ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) x n + 1 q + b n 1 ( 1 k ) b n ( I T k I ) ( x n + 1 q ) b n T x n + 1 T z n c n v n x n ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) x n + 1 q b n T x n + 1 T z n c n v n x n ,

which implies that for all n0,

(2.6)
(2.7)
(2.8)

Substituting (2.8) in (2.7), we have

x n + 1 z n [ b n + c n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n ] x n q + L b n [ [ 1 + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n ] x n q + c n u n q ] + c n v n q + c n u n q = [ ( 1 + L ) b n + L ( 1 + L ) b n b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L b n ) c n ] x n q + c n v n q + ( 1 + L b n ) c n u n q .
(2.9)

Substituting (2.9) in (2.6), we get

x n + 1 q ( 1 k b n + k 1 c n ) x n q + k 1 L b n [ [ ( 1 + L ) b n + L ( 1 + L ) b n b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L b n ) c n ] x n q + c n v n q + ( 1 + L b n ) c n u n q ] + k 1 c n v n q = [ 1 b n [ k k 1 L ( ( 1 + L ) b n + L ( 1 + L ) b n b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L b n ) c n ) k 1 t n ] ] x n q + k 1 L b n ( 1 + L b n ) c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L b n ) c n v n q [ 1 b n [ k k 1 L ( ( 1 + L ) 2 b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L ) c n ) k 1 t n ] ] x n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q ( 1 s b n ) x n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q ( 1 s b n ) x n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n M + k 1 ( 1 + L ) b n t n M = ( 1 s b n ) x n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) M b n ( L c n + t n ) .

Put

we have

α n + 1 (1 ω n ) α n + ω n β n + γ n ,n0.

Observe that n = 0 ω n =, ω n [0,1] and lim n β n =0. It follows from Lemma 3 that lim n x n q=0.

We also have

( 1 b n ) y n = ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) p n + b n ( I T k I ) p n + b n ( T p n T w n ) c n ( v n y n ) .
(2.10)

From (2.5) and (2.10), it follows that for all n0,

( 1 b n ) y n q ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) ( p n q ) + b n ( I T k I ) ( p n q ) b n T p n T w n c n v n y n = ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) p n q + b n 1 ( 1 k ) b n ( I T k I ) ( p n q ) b n T p n T w n c n v n y n ( 1 ( 1 k ) b n ) p n q b n T p n T w n c n v n y n ,

which implies that for all n0,

(2.11)
(2.12)
(2.13)

Substituting (2.13) in (2.12), we have

p n w n [ b n + c n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n ] y n q + L b n [ [ 1 + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n ] y n q + c n u n q ] + c n v n q + c n u n q = [ ( 1 + L ) b n + L ( 1 + L ) b n b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L b n ) c n ] y n q + c n v n q + ( 1 + L b n ) c n u n q .
(2.14)

Substituting (2.14) in (2.11), we get

p n q ( 1 k b n + k 1 c n ) y n q + k 1 L b n [ [ ( 1 + L ) b n + L ( 1 + L ) b n b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L b n ) c n ] y n q + c n v n q + ( 1 + L b n ) c n u n q ] + k 1 c n v n q = [ 1 b n [ k k 1 L ( ( 1 + L ) b n + L ( 1 + L ) b n b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L b n ) c n ) k 1 t n ] ] y n q + k 1 L b n ( 1 + L b n ) c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L b n ) c n v n q [ 1 b n [ k k 1 L ( ( 1 + L ) 2 b n + ( 1 + L ) b n + c n + ( 1 + L ) c n ) k 1 t n ] ] y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q ( 1 s b n ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q
(2.15)

for any n0. Thus (2.15) implies that

y n + 1 q y n + 1 p n + p n q ( 1 s b n ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q + ε n = ( 1 ω n ) y n q + ω n β n + γ n .
(2.16)

With

we have

α n + 1 (1 ω n ) α n + ω n β n + γ n ,n0.

Observe that n = 0 ω n =, ω n [0,1] and lim n β n =0. It follows from Lemma 3 that lim n y n q=0.

Suppose that lim n y n =q. It follows from equation (2.15) that

ε n y n + 1 q + p n q ( 1 s b n ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q + y n + 1 q 0 ,

as n; that is, ε n 0 as n. □

Using the techniques in the proof of Theorem 9, we have the following results.

Theorem 10 Let X, K, T, S, s, { u n } n = 0 , { v n } n = 0 , { x n } n = 0 , { z n } n = 0 , { w n } n = 0 , { y n } n = 0 and { p n } n = 0 be as in Theorem  9. Suppose that { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 , { c n } n = 0 , { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 and { c n } n = 0 are sequences in[0,1]satisfying conditions (i), (iii)-(v) of Theorem  9 with

n = 0 c n <.

Then the conclusions of Theorem  9 hold.

Theorem 11 Let X, K, T, S, s, { u n } n = 0 , { v n } n = 0 , { x n } n = 0 , { z n } n = 0 , { w n } n = 0 , { y n } n = 0 and { p n } n = 0 be as in Theorem  9. Suppose that { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 , { c n } n = 0 , { a n } n = 0 , { b n } n = 0 and { c n } n = 0 are sequences in[0,1]satisfying condition (i), (iii) and (v) of Theorem  9 with

where m is a constant. Then

  1. (a)

    the sequence { x n } n = 0 converges strongly to the common fixed point q of T and S. Also,

    x n + 1 q(1sm) x n q+C,n0,

where

C= k 1 (1+L) [ L sup n 0 { c n u n q } + sup n 0 { c n v n q } ] ,

(b)

y n + 1 q ( 1 s m ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q + ε n , n 0 ,
  1. (c)

    lim n y n =q implies that lim n ε n =0.

Proof As in the proof of Theorem 9, we conclude that F(T)F(S)={q} and

x n + 1 q ( 1 s b n ) x n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q ( 1 s m ) x n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q ( 1 s m ) x n q + C , n 0 .

Let

Observe that 0θ<1 and lim n b n =0. It follows from Lemma 4 that lim n x n q=0.

Also, from (2.15), we have

y n + 1 q ( 1 s b n ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) b n c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q + ε n ( 1 s m ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q + ε n .

Suppose that lim n y n =q. It follows from equation (2.15) that

ε n y n + 1 q + p n q ( 1 s m ) y n q + k 1 L ( 1 + L ) c n u n q + k 1 ( 1 + L ) c n v n q + y n + 1 q 0 ,

as n; that is, ε n 0 as n.

Conversely, suppose that lim n ε n =0. Put

Observe that 0θ<1 and lim n b n =0. It follows from Lemma 4 that lim n y n q=0. □

As an immediate consequence of Theorems 9 and 11, we have the following:

Corollary 12 Let K be a nonempty closed convex subset of an arbitrary Banach space X andT,S:KKbe two Lipschitz strictly hemicontractive operators. Suppose that { α n } n = 0 , { β n } n = 0 are any sequences in[0,1]satisfying

  1. (vi)

    n = 0 α n =,

  2. (vii)

    L[ ( 1 + L ) 2 α n +(1+L) β n ]k(ks), n0,

where s is a constant in(0,k). Suppose that { x n } n = 0 is the sequence generated from an arbitrary x 0 Kby

Let { y n } n = 0 be any sequence in K and define { ε n } n = 0 by

ε n = y n + 1 p n ,n0,

where

p n =(1 α n ) y n + α n T w n ,

and

w n =(1 β n ) y n + β n S y n ,n0.

Then

  1. (a)

    the sequence { x n } n = 0 converges strongly to the common fixed point q of T and S,

  2. (b)

    n = 0 ε n < implies that lim n y n =q, so that { x n } n = 0 is almost common-stable on K,

  3. (c)

    lim n y n =q implies that lim n ε n =0.

Corollary 13 Let X, K, T, S, s, { x n } n = 0 , { z n } n = 0 , { w n } n = 0 , { y n } n = 0 and { p n } n = 0 be as in Theorem  9. Suppose that { α n } n = 0 , { β n } n = 0 are sequences in[0,1]satisfying conditions (vi)-(vii) and (iii) of Theorem  9 with

α n m>0,n0,

where m is a constant. Then

  1. (a)

    the sequence { x n } n = 0 converges strongly to the common fixed point q of T and S. Also,

    x n + 1 q(1sm) x n q,n0,

    (b)

    y n + 1 q(1sm) y n q+ ε n ,n0,
  2. (c)

    lim n y n =q implies that lim n ε n =0.

Example 14 Let R denote the set of real numbers with the usual norm, K=R, and define T,S:RR by

Tx= 2 5 sin 2 x,andSx= 4 5 x.

Set L= 4 5 , t= 5 4 , s= 1 400 . Clearly, F(T)F(S)={0} and

|TxTy| 2 5 |sinxsiny||sinx+siny|L|xy|,x,yR.

Clearly both T and S are Lipschitz operators on R.

Also, it follows from (1.1) that

| ( 1 + r ) ( x y ) r t ( T x T y ) | ( 1 + r ) | x y | r t | T x T y | = | x y | + r ( | x y | t | T x T y | ) | x y |

for any x,yR and r>0. Thus T is strongly pseudocontractive and Lemma 7 ensures that T is strictly hemicontractive. Put

then it can be easily seen that

L [ ( 1 + L ) 2 b n + c n + ( 1 + L ) ( b n + c n ) ] + c n b n 0.4560.049375,n0.

It follows from Theorem 9 that the sequence { x n } n = 0 defined by (2.1) converges strongly to the common fixed point 0 of T and S in K and the iterative scheme defined by (2.1) is T-stable.
